“Juneberry Garage: A New Gathering Place Opens Its Doors
Get ready to sip, snack, and socialize at Juneberry Garage, the latest addition to the historic Walter Reed campus. Partners Josh Saltzman, Chris Powers, Robin Webb, Trent Allen, Jeremy Riley and Gladys Kamau are hard at work transforming the historic auto body shop into a bar and restaurant. But in the meantime, they’ve set up shop to serve seasonal snacks and beverages on the patio from a vintage airstream trailer. Come enjoy the fall weather with some hot cider and eats, as well as a variety of draft beers and cocktails.

Located at 6810 Cameron Drive, Juneberry Garage is the perfect pit stop after a trip to the Whole Foods or a ride through Rock Creek Park.

From the Office of the DC Attorney General:
“Attorney General Brian L. Schwalb today announced a lawsuit against TikTok, Inc. (TikTok) for causing mental and physical harms to District children through its platform intentionally designed to be addictive to kids. The lawsuit also alleges that TikTok deceives its users and their parents about the safety of its platform, and illegally operates a money transmission business, all in violation of District consumer protection laws. The filing by the Office of the Attorney General (OAG) alleges that TikTok’s manipulative platform traps young users into cycles of excessive use that the company knows contribute to profound psychological and physiological harms, including body dysmorphia, sleep loss, depression, anxiety, and long-lasting neurological impacts. Despite this, TikTok misleads its users and their parents, falsely claiming that the app is safe for kids and that users have full control over their engagement, spending, and data. (more…)
